The Empire Strikes Back - The Vintage Edit (Released) — Page 7

Unless my memory is even fuzzier than I think it is, I believe a sort of 'beta' version of ESB:VE is out. I think there are still some color correction issues he wants to fix in the future. (same with ANH?)

Please correct me if I'm wrong, Paul! I'm really looking forward to your Vintage edits, too, and hope I can get them someday! :)

Anyways, the showing went alright, not as well as we had hoped, but not bad. This is probably because most of the Seniors/Juniors have sports after school. I've talked to many of them and they said that they would have liked to go, but had to go to practice. So I'm thinking we might to a back-to-back showing for ESB.

Yeah a lot of people I talked to too. Jocks you know...go figure. I just don't know if I can sit through Empire twice in a row.

Updates:
-Isolated score is synced up.
-Empire is being shown next week instead of this week, and Jedi two weeks later, giving me three weeks to work on Jedi.

You know, I forgot about Jedi.  Did you ever work on that?

No :(.  I got swamped and we just planned to show OCP's Jedi.  Of course a variety of things happened after that and we never actually got around to showing Jedi anyway.

Dunedain is right in this case, Empire was the first one I did, sourced from the DVD, with the 2006 DVD release of Empire used as the alternate source.  It's not technically "beta", though with what I'm doing now, I kind of consider it beta, maybe just consider it the version that I liked until I realized I could do better.  It was generally well received when it was released over a year ago.  If anybody would like a copy, they can PM me and we can set it up, the torrent for it (at least the original one that I, myself, posted) has been dead a long time.  I'm not sure if anyone has posted torrents for it since (.avis for example)

I'll be editing ESB and ROTJ much differently than I'm editing ANH right now.  It wasn't until I edited my Batman edit (Batman: Year One) as well as my Batman vs Superman crossover edit, that I figured out a very efficient way to edit HD material (for a fucking Bats vs Supes edit, you need to be able to work pretty efficiently! lolz).  Editing Star Wars now is very slow as my computer can't render the HD frames in Adobe Premiere very quickly, but ESB and ROTJ will get the boost of speed from all I've learned about doing Hi-Def complex editing structures from my HD fan-edits.  If hard drive space provides, I may do them side by side, releasing them that much more quickly.  ESB 2.0 may end up being released last, as we find out more about what we're doing with this 35mm print of Empire.

Thanks for the continued interest everybody :)

Any updates on this continuing edit? :)

 Could someone post the histograms again? All the links are dead. Since this project seems to have died, I'd just like to briefly colour correct it to an extent to tide me over until Ady's gets released.

This edit has been done for somewhere around three years.  I'm doing in HD after I'm done with Star Wars and after I've finished Trooperman's edit.  Adywan's AVC HD Empire Strikes Back was posted on demonoid a month ago.  I'll decide what projects I'm working on and when.  Thanks for your concern.
